Spent mushroom substrate; resource recovery utilization; circular agriculture; sustainable development.Abstract
The rapid development of the edible fungus industry has generated substantial amounts of spent mushroom substrate (SMS), and improper disposal of such residues has caused environmental pollution and resource wastage. This study systematically reviews resource utilization pathways for SMS in agricultural recycling, industrial energy conversion, and other fields. It analyzes the current challenges in the resource utilization of edible fungal residues and proposes recommendations for the future development of the sector, aiming to provide theoretical references for the sustainable and eco-friendly use of SMS.
